Abstract

Nanofluids is a kind of new engineering material which consisting of solid nanoparticles with size typically of 1-100nm by dispersing it into based fluids.This research presents the preparation of Aluminium Oxide(Al2O) nanofluids by using two-step methods.This nanofluids was prepared by dispersing Al32O nanoparticles(<50nm)in distilled water based fluids with the addition of calculated amount of Sodium Dodecylbenzene Sulphonate(SDBS)as a surfactant and absence of SDBS surfactant.The nanofluids were sonicated with ultrasonic vibrator at power of 700 Watt and frequency of 40k Hz for 15 minutes.It was tested that with the presence of surfactant in the nanofluids,the nanofluids was stable for 2 weeks.Absence of surfactant cause the small amount...
